The end of the line shows the resistance of the zone. For 4-wire CC zones, the display
alternates between the Alarm resistance (“A”) and the Tamper resistance (“T”).
“O/C” means Open Circuit.
“0k00” means zero resistance or closed circuit.
Signal Strengths
This option allows you check the received signal strength from all the radio transmitters
belonging to the system.
The display shows first: the strength of the most recent signal it has received from a
transmitter, and second: (in brackets) the minimum strength signal it has received from the
transmitter since the records were last reset. The control unit is always recording signal
strengths, whether or not you are using the Signal Strength menu.
Note: If you have fitted a WAM to act as a repeater for weak detector signals, you will not
see any change in the signal strength reported for those detectors. However, you should
note the signal strength of the WAM, since that device is now passing on the information
from the detectors whose signal you are trying to amplify.
To reset the signal strength records press “*” while you are in the Tests – Signal Strengths
menu. When you press “*”, the control unit resets the signal strength records for ALL
transmitters.
You can also reset the signal strength record of individual transmitters. To do this press “#”
while the display shows the signal strength of the transmitter you wish to reset.
Detectors
The display shows the strength of the most recently received signal from each
learned radio zone. To see the zone number press or .
Radio Keypads
The display shows a list of the received signal strengths from each radio keypad.
A minimum reading of 2 is acceptable. (When reading from the web interface or other
software, a minimum reading of 4 is needed if the control unit is in User mode, or 2 if
it is in Installer mode.)
External Sirens
The display shows a list of the received signal strengths from each radio siren.
WAMs
The display shows a list of the received signal strengths from each learned WAM.
Internal Sounders
The display shows a list of the received signal strengths from each internal radio
sounder.
Outputs
Radio/Wired Outputs
Select the device type (such as Radio Outputs), then or to select the output you wish
to test, followed by to activate the output. Press again to deactivate the output. Press
to finish the test.
When you complete testing the outputs, check that they are in the state you wish to leave
them in.
